CARE FOR CHILDREN, LIFESTOCK AND WILDLIFE

Growing knowledge and awareness among the Maasai community  living inside the Selenkay conservancy is at the heart of the latest join venture between the Gamewatchers Safaris, the PD Foundation and wiLearn 4 Life.
On the 22. March 2021 the Smart Learning team initiated the KickOff Meeting of the Smart learning project. Present were dignitaries and representatives from the Lenkisem and Ilorirero communities, Schools Boards, County Administration Authorities, Chiefs, Womens groups and the Catholic Church who offered to host the event and the succeeding workshop.  

EDUCATION TO GAIN

The communities and schools have woken up and craving for mobile learning. The Maasai elders and parents see the true opportunties in distance learning programs as they wish their children to profit from it. At the first opportuntiy after the project KickOff event they accessed the digital library platform and entusiastically longed to join the upcoming workshop. The Smart Learning tools incited their imagination so quickyl that several community members requested assistance to buy their own tablet PC's. Their main concern has been to connect all the family members in their homestead  with the vital edcuation library information which has become the driving force to find digital gadgets they could buy. Wihtin the project area we plan to come up with a fair offer in conjunction with a Nairobi outlet. At the cost of approximately 2 goats many Maasai families can afford a Phablet (tabelt with phone capability) which is a great new investment opportunity for them.

"Whatever you learn is safe and sustainable for a lifetime - it can never be stolen from the individual"

The win-win model integrates the needs of the local communities, the protection and conservation of wildlife, as well as the biodiversity and eco-tourism.
